everything that strongly abuses the body and depletes the immune system must be held responsible for
causing illness, regardless of whether it is a stroke, cancer, or an AIDS disease. Emotional stress,
insufficient nutrition, dehydration, sleep deprivation, alcohol, cigarettes, antibiotics, hard drugs, excessive
sexual activity, etc., can all damage the immune system. A dormant piece of viral material such as HIV,
on the other hand, can do no harm in a healthy body.
Whoever continuously exposes himself to immune risk factors is also more susceptible to developing
the Acquired Human Immune Deficiency Syndrome. Someone may argue: “What about an innocent baby
who becomes infected with HIV by its parents and dies from pneumonia? Is that not AIDS?” The fact is
that at least as many children die from pneumonia with or without HIV, and it doesn’t significantly
influence the outcome of the disease whether they had a previous encounter with HIV or not. What can
make a big difference, however, is how the pneumonia is treated.
What Really Causes Aids
Over 35 diseases have now been renamed AIDS diseases, all supposedly caused by one single
(inactive) virus. What has been considered normal pneumonia until 10-15 years ago, if linked with HIV, it
is now an AIDS disease. The same applies to Candida infection, tuberculosis, Kaposi’s sarcoma, and
cervical cancer. If an African suffers from “slim disease” and has HIV antibodies in his blood, he is being
told that he has AIDS. If he dies from the disease, he obviously must have died from AIDS. This simple
logic may sound persuasive to a lay person.
On the other hand, if an African is diagnosed with having “slim disease” without previous HIV
infection and subsequently dies, AIDS is not considered the cause of death. It is worthy to note that there
are at least as many cases of slim disease without HIV as there are with HIV, and that the retrovirus HIV
has proven to be incapable of causing cell destruction, which is the main characteristic accompanying
“slim disease”.
If the HIV virus cannot be held responsible for causing AIDS diseases, then what is the cause of
AIDS?
1. Narcotic Drugs
Roughly ten years before the discovery of AIDS, the industrial world experienced a dramatic increase
in the use of non-prescribed drugs ranging from hashish, marijuana and psychedelics to LSD, MDA, PCP,
heroin, cocaine, amyl and butyl nitrites, amphetamines, barbiturates, ethyl chloride, opium, mushrooms
and other “tailor-made” drugs. By 1974, five million Americans had used the drug cocaine, and only
eleven years later, the figure had jumped to over 22 million. In 1990, the American Drug Enforcement
Administration had confiscated 100,000 kilograms of cocaine, compared to a mere 500 kilograms in
- Within a decade, the number of cocaine overdose victims had increased from 3,000 in 1981 to
80,000 in 1990, an increase of 2,400 percent. Amphetamine use also jumped dramatically. In 1989, the
Drug Enforcement Administration seized 97 million doses, up from 2 million doses in 1981. Also,
aphrodisiacs became extremely popular during the 1970s. By 1980, five million Americans had become
regular users of amyl nitrites, or “poppers.”
The AIDS epidemic followed a huge jump in drug abuse. Every practicing physician who has seen the
severe destruction of body and mind in drug-using patients understand that drugs are capable of doing
even more harm to a person than just killing them. Drugs are known for their powerful effect of
systematically destroying a person’s vital functions, including the immune system. The figures given
above can in no way represent the total use of drugs within the population, but they certainly indicate that
